Located at the SE tip of a NW-SE spur. A circular embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 40m) is depicted on the 1834 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is described in gothic lettering as a ‘fort’, and it is represented as a circular hachured feature (ext. diam. c. 50m N-S; c. 45m E-W) on the 1907 edition. Slight traces of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 34-38m) are visible in improved pasture.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Monaghan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
